| Abstract | In this paper, we introduce Minerva; an information-centric programming paradigm and toolkit for social sensing. The toolkit is geared for smartphone applications whose main objective is to collect and share information about the physical world. Information-centric programming refers to a publish-subscribe paradigm that maximizes the amount of information delivered. Unlike a traditional publish-subscribe system where publishers are assumed to have independent content, Minerva is geared for social sensing applications where different sources (participants sharing sensor data) often overlap in information they share. For example, through lack of coordination, they might collect redundant pictures of the same scene or redundant speed measurements of the same street. The main contribution of Minerva, therefore, lies in a data prioritization scheme that maximizes information delivery from publishers to subscribers by reducing redundancy, taking into account the non-independent nature of content. The algorithm is implemented on Android phones on top of the recently introduced named data networking framework. Evaluation results from both two smartphone-based experiments and a large-scale real data driven simulation demonstrate that the prioritization algorithm outperforms other candidates in terms of information coverage. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
